THE NITTY GRITTY
HELLO

Hi. I'm Amanda...a happy wife and mom to three awesome guys. We've lived here in Fort Collins for more than 20 years and are proud to call it home. Before moving to CO, I worked at a city attorney's office, making use of my law and Master's degrees from Duke. After settling in Fort Collins, I homeschooled my three (now teenage and older) sons and was delighted to experience music classes, soccer, karate, swim team, archery, Science Olympiad, First Lego League, parkour, and climbing (not all at the same time!). From 2005-10, I was also a contributing editor for a national scrapbooking magazine, authoring a book and a couple of monthly columns. From 2009-10, I founded and ran the Good Grief Blog. I enjoy learning new things, spending time with my family, volunteering with The Matthews House, traveling and indoor rock climbing.

A blast from the past.

DateWednesday, June 20, 2007 at 11:37AM

Almost finished unpacking from my awesome time at CKU last week. Had a BLAST! Rather than bombard you with pictures, though, let me just share these two for right now...

Me and my old college roomies! We've known each other almost 14 years now and manage to keep in touch regularly. Though we weren't able to convince the other two from our "Whitworth gang" to join us, the three of us had a spectacular time attending CKU together. So very lucky to have such cool friends! (Now, if we could just convince them all to move here to Colorado, LOL!...you know I'm talking to you, Hos!) 

And, a highlight of the trip for me...I ran into these two great gals. I went to grade school and high school with them! Seriously cool catching up with them and it just goes to show that scrapbooking really does bring the whole world closer together. ;)

Okay, back to unpacking... ;)
